Organisers of the Harry Potter studio tour are bracing themselves for a surge in bookings after stars of the film series perform the grand opening tomorrow.

Rupert Grint, who plays Ron Weasley, Bonnie Wright, who plays his sister and Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy, will lead the opening ceremony at Leavesden Studios near Watford — the site where the films were made.

Sets including the Great Hall and a large model of Hogwarts school have been resurrected in an experience which offers fans the chance to see costumes, animatronics and props from the eight films.

Other cast including Warwick Davis, David Thewlis, Helen McCrory, David Bradley and Nick Moran and three directors — David Yates, Alfonso Cuaron and Mike Newell — will also attend. The opening is sold out.
